| 3.1 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 6/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 4/5 | 10/20 | Dec 15, 2009 Härlig svart vätska rinner från flaskan och ned i glaset. Den har en mycket fin skumtopp som ligger länge och som gir en fin kappa på glaset.
Den doftar himmel för mig (kaffe, choklad och bränt).
Eftersom detta är en butiköl är det mycket lenare (och inte als oljig) som t.ex. Dark Force.
Smaken är mycket bränt kaffe och tyvärr inte så mycket choklad som doften lovade. Jag får en känsla att HaandBryggeriet här har gjort en liten Guinness-variant. Jag tycker smaken och känslan påminner mycket om just Guinness. Samme bränt/kaffe-balans, samma torrhet och bitterhet. chimplechamp (465), Oslo, Norway
| 2.7 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 5/10 | 3/5 | 4/10 | 2/5 | 13/20 | Dec 13, 2009 Bottle, pours brownish black with a large tan head. very sprtizy looking. Nose is cola, some smoke, wood, earth, it seems quite faint compared to the taste. The mouthfeel is way to thin and is bitter in the same way that seltzer water is with about the same carbonation. After the upfront smokiness there is nothing left to be desired. sebletitje (1986), Tampa, Florida, USA

Pours brown, light mocha head.
Aroma is lightly malty, some esters and chocolate.
Flavor, thin body, hints of tart fruits, esters, light roast, thin chocolate, dry palate.
